A subset K of R^n gives rise to a formal Laurent series with monomials corresponding to lattice points in K. Under suitable hypotheses, this series represents a rational function R(K). Michel Brion has discovered a surprising formula…
While automata theory often concerns itself with regular predicates, relations corresponding to acceptance by a finite state automaton, in this article we study the regular functions, such relations which are also functions in the…
We give a new proof of Fatou's theorem: {\em if an algebraic function has a power series expansion with bounded integer coefficients, then it must be a rational function.} This result is applied to show that for any non--trivial completely…
In multicentric calculus one takes a polynomial $p$ with distinct roots as a new variable and represents complex valued functions by $\mathbb C^d$-valued functions, where $d$ is the degree of $p$. An application is e.g. the possibility to…
In this paper we study a general class of conics starting from a quotient field. We give a group structure over these conics generalizing the construction of a group over the Pell hyperbola. Furthermore, we generalize the definition of…
Consider the formal power series $\sum [C_{p, \alpha}(X)]t^{\alpha}$ (called Motivic Chow Series), where $C_p(X)=\disjoint C_{p, \alpha}(X)$ is the Chow variety of $X$ parametrizing the $p$-dimensional effective cycles on $X$ with $C_{p,…
We give simple upper bounds for rational sectional category and use them to compute invariants of the type of Farber's topological complexity of rational spaces. In particular we show that the sectional category of formal morphisms reaches…
We formalize some basic properties of Fourier series in the logic of ACL2(r), which is a variant of ACL2 that supports reasoning about the real and complex numbers by way of non-standard analysis. More specifically, we extend a framework…
Obtained a new property of superposition of the generating functions ln(1/(1-F(x))), where F(x) - generating function with integer coefficients, which allows the construction a primality tests. The theorem which is based on compositions of…
In this paper we study the coefficients of the powers of an ordinary generating function and their properties. A new class of functions based on compositions of an integer $n$ is introduced and is termed composita. We present theorems about…
We discuss some examples that illustrate the countability of the positive rational numbers and related sets. Techniques include radix representations, Godel numbering, the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, continued fractions, Egyptian…
Let $F/\QQ $ be a totally real number field of degree $n$. We explicitly evaluate a certain sum of rational functions over a infinite fan of $F$-rational polyhedral cones in terms of the norm map $\Norm \colon F\to \QQ $. This completes…
A conjecture of Serre concerns the number of rational points of bounded height on a finite cover of projective space P^{n-1}. In this paper, we achieve Serre's conjecture in the special case of smooth cyclic covers of any degree when n is…
This text provides very easy and short proofs of some basic properties of complex power series (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, rearrangement, composition, differentiation, uniqueness, Taylor's series, Principle of…
The $\beta\gamma$ system is generalized by complex(rational) powers of the fields, which leads to a corresponding extension on the Fock space. Two different approaches to compute the Green functions of the physical operators are proposed.…
Selective rationalization has become a common mechanism to ensure that predictive models reveal how they use any available features. The selection may be soft or hard, and identifies a subset of input features relevant for prediction. The…
Some criticisms that have been raised against the Cox approach to probability theory are addressed. Should we use a single real number to measure a degree of rational belief? Can beliefs be compared? Are the Cox axioms obvious? Are there…
To an ideal in $\mathbb{C}[x,y]$ one can associate a topological zeta function. This is an extension of the topological zeta function associated to one polynomial. But in this case we use a principalization of the ideal instead of an…
An abstract theory of Fourier series in locally convex topological vector spaces is developed. An analog of Fej\'{e}r's theorem is proved for these series. The theory is applied to distributional solutions of Cauchy-Riemann equations to…
We show that assuming the standard conjectures, for any smooth projective variety $X$ of dimension $n$ over an algebraically closed field, there is a constant $C>0$ such that for any positive rational number $r$ and for any polarized…
